Join us, Carol & Ken, as we continue our trip in southern Scotland in our Consort Nova Motorhome called Snoopy.

In this episode we wake up to a lovely day in a lay-by outside Peebles. We head into the town for a walk round the shops. Will Carol succumb to a Snoopy shopping bag?

Next stop on our trip is Rosslyn Chapel, made famous by the film “The Da Vinci Code”. This is somewhere we have been wanting to visit for a long time so will it live up to our expectations?

Arriving late at our park up, no sooner are the security cameras out when we get our first ever knock! How is this situation going to end up?

🔶 About us 🔶

Welcome to our channel! We're Carol and Ken, retired professionals turned van life enthusiasts. We share our adventures across the UK and Europe in our camper van.

Our goal is to provide a relaxing, honest account of van life, with no scripted drama - just the real, day-to-day experiences of our travels. Many of our viewers find our content calming, and we hope you will too.

We're passionate about wild camping and love to share our knowledge and tips, from staying cool in the van to choosing the right toilet. We're always learning and look forward to sharing our campervanning experiences with you.

While we love the freedom of wild camping, we also enjoy supporting local businesses by indulging in delicious local food. Expect to see plenty of one-pan meals and restaurant visits in our videos.

We like historical sites, country homes, towns, villages, and the occasional city. We aim to share interesting facts and stories about the places we visit.

Our channel is perfect for armchair travellers, those considering a caravan or motorhome, or anyone looking to unwind after a stressful day. If this sounds like you, hit that subscribe button and join us on our journey. Your support, whether through watching our videos, subscribing, or contributing to our 'Buy Me a Coffee' fund, helps to keep our adventures going. We appreciate every bit of it. ❤️

Due to us both being diagnosed with cancer in 2025 our longer campervan trips have been put on hold and we will not be able to post as many videos on a regular basis. We hope you will bear with us as we concentrate on our health and recovery.
